Karan, there is a service of DHR in Darjeeling-Batasia Loop-Ghoom-Darjeeling section which is regularly done by steam locos.

OK, if disgusting seems like a strong word, I still say it is unfair on the part of IR. Thousands of tourists will read about "World Heritage" DHR and its legendary steam locos (Wikipedia article shows all steam locos only) and when they arrive you give them these ugly diesels. If I was cheated this way, I'd never ever come there again, and would also tell everyone I know not to go there.

Whatever the provocation, still does not qualify for the word "disgusting" to be used.

Nice shot.

This is disgusting stuff. You get your railway included in World Heritage sites and then replace the steam loco with dull looking diesels. Not done.

Fantastic. The photographs not only revealed glimpses of some rarely-seen areas but also focused on the human aspect of IR. Hats off to all of you for undertaking this incredible expedition and coming back with this wonderful collection.
